New Paul McCartney album "Egypt Station" coming September 7, 2018*

New Paul McCartney album "Egypt Station" coming September 7, 2018?

"First single 4-6 weeks" - this way May 19 (4 weeks and three days ago).

 

Agreed, especially assuming we will get a WA 50th and maybe Wild Life and RRS deluxe editions all released prior to Christmas.

 

Wow thanks Frank!

 

Yep

 

I want the frigging ALBUM !!!

 

Hmm, I’m a little surprised you were even close to falling for this one @maccawings ! That’s instantly a younger sounding McCartney.

 

5 stars, his best work since Ram

 

That's not Paul singing.

 

They’re basically finding out with the rest of us at this point.

 

It's Paul but not the Paul from 2018. Sounds like him from the 1970s.

 

Midnight here and nothing

 

Nice to see Paul branching out in his choice of cover version...

 

It is, don't you recognise the voice? It's the same one that did the "Aaaahhhs" in A Day In The Life

 

Going to have to draw a line in the sand here. That is NOT Paul singing. Listen carefully to the accent.

 

Sounds more like the work of "iamphonymusic" to me using vocal bits of Paul.

 

If it follows any other new single/album releases on Spotify and other streaming services, it will probably drop between 12 AM and 7 AM.

However, if it is a situation where MPL sends out the email blast with the official press release, links, etc, I would imagine 9 AM.

 

You mean you all haven't heard it yet??

 

I am really curious to hear the second song, as the way it is described by Paul's team is a mellow tune and the way it was described by Denny as quite Beatley.. I'm having a hard time putting those two together.. but we'll know soon enough.

 

Ditto. "Beatley" doesn't really sound like "plaintive ballads" to me...

 

However, since we don't know where you live ... how helpful is that to the rest of us?

 

I am hoping for a duet with Yoko on the new album.

 

It's after midnight in Germany now.

 

Well I said that it was obviously 70's but he has dropped in lyrics before

 

And sped up a bit too. Sounds like the vocals from the piano demo.

 

I Don't Know (song)
